Chapter 169 [Waiting for Your Return in the Mortal World]
In the ancient forbidden land, the branches of the vigorous old trees stretch out in all directions like coiled dragons. Each old tree rises into the sky like a hill. The old vines as thick as water tanks roar into the sky like dragons. Each one can wrap around a mountain, strong and powerful.
If you don't know the details, when you see the lush vegetation and vitality of this place, you will definitely think it is a pure land.
But if you look closely, you will find that the vast forest is as quiet as death. There is no sound at all, no birds or animals, no ants or insects to be seen. It is as if you have arrived at the end of the world.
"One of the seven life forbidden areas in the Eastern Wasteland."
Fairy Zixia was worried, her brows furrowed tightly, and she asked again: "Should we really go in?"
"It's not about going in, it's about going home." Lin Xian corrected, very calmly: "If even we can't enter the restricted area, then no one in the world can enter the ancient restricted area."
"Go home?" Ye Fan and Fairy Zixia looked at each other, and their eyes fell on the little girl on Lin Xian's shoulder, and their hearts moved.
Little Nannan’s origins are mysterious. She is not an ordinary girl. She seems to be a divine baby born and raised. Could it be that she came out from an ancient forbidden area?
"The Holy Lord has always cherished his life the most. He dared to enter the ancient forbidden area, so he must be fully confident."
Ye Fan muttered to himself and whispered with Fairy Zixia. Having known Fairy Lin for so many years, he understood Saint Lin very well.
He is the first to take advantage of an opportunity, the first to run away when there is danger, and the first to surrender when he really cannot win.
People in the underworld call him Lin Kenken, and he never fights a battle he is not sure of winning.
Lin Xian's face darkened. What do you mean he values his life the most? He is cautious, mature beyond his years, and meticulous!
"If you don't come, I will go pick the holy fruit and drink the holy spring by myself."
Lin Xian spoke calmly, standing with his hands behind his back, with an invincible demeanor.
At the top of the world, he is the proud one. As long as he is in Lin Xian, there is the sky. Even if he has to bear the fruit of a ruthless man and needs to hold up a white paper boat in one hand, he, Lin Xian, is still invincible in the world.
As he spoke, Lin Xian crossed the eight hundred li old forest and headed towards the ancient forbidden land. He was full of confidence, with his little girl on his head, and he was invincible.
"Follow!"
Ye Fan gritted his teeth and explained to Fairy Zixia that this was a good opportunity to take down Saint Lord Lin. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that must not be missed.
Three streams of light flew by and stepped into the edge of the ancient forbidden area.
Rumble!
An extremely powerful curse force suppressed down. It was a power unique to the ancient forbidden area, used to hide from interference from outsiders.
In this life forbidden zone, all cultivators cannot fly or hide.
"The Wheel Sea has dried up, the Taoist Palace is silent, and the four poles are numb..." A trace of solemnity appeared in Fairy Zixia's eyes, and the power of time was eroding her.
This is undoubtedly fatal to the innate Taoist fetus. Without the blessing of Taoism, it cannot go too far relying solely on the strength of the flesh.
"My body seems to be able to resist some curses..." Ye Fan whispered. He was an ancient holy body, immune to all evil and invincible. Even if he was in a restricted area, his golden blood was still boiling and could rush out of his body at any time, allowing him to move forward in the forbidden area.
On the other hand, Lin Xian held the white paper boat in one hand and carried little girl on his back. He was invincible in the ancient forbidden area, like a normal person, not affected at all.
The white paper boat blooms with billions of rays of light, dropping rays of divine light, like a canopy covering the sky, immune to all kinds of attacks, with a solemn appearance, as if a true immortal is traveling, immortal in the mortal world.
"Holy Lord, you do have a backup plan!" Ye Fan almost cried for joy. Holy Lord Lin was finally reliable for once and did not let him down.
"Stop talking nonsense. Time is short and the mission is heavy." Lin Xian said straightforwardly: "My divine power has also been sealed. Xiao Nannan is a little girl and can't go far. I have to rely on you."
"Learn from me?" Ye Fan looked confused. How could he rely on me?
Then Lin Xian brought Xiao Nannan over and sat on the shoulders of the Holy Body. She motioned for Fairy Zixia to come up as well and said leisurely, "Mechas combine, Holy Body attacks!"
"It can be like this!" Ye Fan exclaimed in amazement. Even as an Earthling, he sometimes couldn't keep up with Saint Lin's train of thought.
This is truly treating the Holy Body like an ox or a horse, or as a mount.
Fairy Zixia was also speechless. She finally confirmed that Lin Xian was not some unfathomable old senior, but a person of the same generation.
Rather than calling him the Holy Lord of Tianxuan, it would be more accurate to say that he is the Senior Brother of Tianxuan. He is both a teacher and a friend to Ye Fan.
"The holy spring and the holy medicine are right in front of us. Are you sure you want to waste time?" Lin Xian said meaningfully: "Maybe someone will wake up after a while."
"Is there anyone here?" Little Nannan blinked her big eyes and asked very cutely, "Big brother, is there anyone living here?"
"There is an old man whose old age is unknown and a confused sister in white." Lin Xian touched the little girl's head and smiled, "Don't worry, they won't hurt you."
Little Nannan nodded as if she understood, Ye Fan and Fairy Zixia shuddered for no apparent reason, then looked at each other and made a decision.
After a moment, the holy body's waist and horse merged into one, with two people on its shoulders, while Fairy Zixia and Fairy Lin were holding the little girl's hand.

"Duck rush!"
Lin Xian asked little Nannan to give the order. It was the first time for the little girl to play this kind of game. She blinked her big eyes and looked very happy and excited, and her voice was very crisp.
The ancient holy body was running at full speed, raising countless dust. It was moving at an extremely fast speed, not at all like its magical powers were sealed. Lin Xianjiao's little girl hummed a little tune and sang: "Speed 70 miles per hour, the mood is free and easy..."
The little guy was very happy. He clapped his tender hands and made a giggling sound, which made Ye Shengti, who had a gloomy face and was about to flip out, hold back his laughter.
For the sake of little girl, I will tolerate the unreliable Lord Lin for once.
A stream of them came rushing over. In this ancient restricted area, which was seldom disturbed by anyone, they unexpectedly saw many magical herbs, all of which were rare in the world and extremely ancient.
Lin Xian asked Fairy Zixia to pick some and go back to make elixir porridge for little Nannan. Of course, if little Nannan couldn't finish it, Saint Lin could have a portion.
After rushing over a hundred miles in one breath, they finally arrived at the core area of the ancient forbidden land.
The nine sacred mountains are not very tall, but they are majestic and bring endless pressure to people, as if the nine heavens and ten earths are blocking the way.
After walking for such a long time, even the Ancient Holy Body was somewhat exhausted without any divine power to replenish and mana to store.
"The power of the curse is even greater..." Ye Fan whispered, feeling the complete suppression of the ancient forbidden area and couldn't help but stop.
Everyone followed suit and used the white paper boats to resist the ancient power.
Seeing this, little Nannan couldn't bear it, so she took out a small stone that looked like a teardrop, handed it to Ye Fan, and whispered, "Big brother, eat this. Little Nannan will not feel tired if she eats this when she is hungry."
The colorful tear marks are crystal clear, beautiful and almost dreamy, and they exude an intoxicating brilliance, as if they are a rare treasure.
As soon as Ye Fan touched it, countless pure life energy poured into his body, accumulating energy for his holy body. He was a little unbelievable and murmured, "Little Nannan, what is this?"
Little Nannan blinked her eyes and said confusedly: "Nannan doesn't know either. It has always been by her side."
"The most original life essence is pure and flawless, without a trace of impurities, and even purer than the divine essence." Fairy Zixia was touched and said, "Little Nannan may be our hope to get out of the restricted area alive."
The small stone blocked the years and resisted the breath of the wilderness. After Ye Fan replenished enough life essence, he made a pendant with the colorful tear marks and returned it to Xiao Nannan, then started climbing again.
The nine sacred mountains are majestic and profound, with towering ancient trees and protruding strange rocks on top. They are truly magnificent. On both sides of the road, there are groups of white bones.
Lin Xian walked forward silently and paid his respects.
"These are the disciples of Tianxuan who attacked the ancient forbidden area six thousand years ago." Fairy Zixia asked in surprise, "Were they killed by Huang?"
"How could Huang Ruo kill someone and leave behind only bones? Even a quasi-emperor would be beaten into powder."
Lin Xian sighed and said, "Ants are using the dragon's lair as a way to get there. Even if the dragon ignores them, it is difficult for them to reach their destination. They are falling on the road to becoming immortals."
"The road to becoming an immortal..." Everyone's heart trembled, and they whispered, "May I ask, are there immortals in this world?"
The soft words seemed to have triggered something. In the abyss of the forbidden area, the sound of chains was faintly heard. The slaves seemed to have received orders and moved randomly.
They stood on the top of the holy mountain, side by side. Some had white hair like snow, some had black hair like waterfalls. The mountain breeze blew, and their hair fluttered in disarray. They had cold eyes as they looked down, without any emotion, and were extremely indifferent.
One of the women looked more familiar, with bright eyes, white teeth, and a slender neck. She was like a lotus emerging from water, so beautiful and extraordinary that it was hard to find any flaws in her, as if she were a person in a painting.
She was the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Wilderness six thousand years ago, and also a fellow disciple of the old madman.
The Saint of Tianxuan of the previous generation.
"Huangnu!"
Fairy Zixia exclaimed, and five figures stood side by side, each with an extraordinary aura. Only those with extraordinary talent could become slaves of the wilderness.
These were all peerless masters who were once invincible in the world. Each of them was enough to sweep across the Eastern Wasteland. "Holy Lord, why don't you talk to Senior Tianxuan?" Ye Fan felt his scalp tingling, and he didn't dare to step forward. He muttered, "Can we see if there's a backdoor?"
What kind of luck is this? Others who come to the ancient forbidden area may not be able to see a slave.
As soon as he arrived, the five great wild slaves lined the road to greet him. It was like seeing a ghost.
Lin Xian was also a little nervous, but the little girl on his shoulder gave him a sense of security. He coughed and said, "What are you afraid of? You are the most connected person. Go forward."
"Holy Lord, why don't you go up?" Ye Fan felt like he was about to cry, as if he was bungee jumping off a cliff and trying to commit suicide.
"My legs are weak." Lin Xian used the calmest tone and said the most cowardly words, pulling little Nannan tighter.
He asked in a low voice: "Little Nannan, close your eyes and feel what these five uncles and aunts are like."
Little Nannan closed her eyes and said with some fear: "Uncles and aunts, they are asleep, but not completely asleep, as if they are sleepwalking."
"Don't be afraid, little girl. Tell them not to do anything." Lin Xian swallowed and let little girl give the orders.
The little girl timidly and fearfully shouted, "Uncle and aunt, can you please not come over here?!"
The next second, a miracle really happened. The five slaves stood still as if time had stopped, staring calmly at Lin Xian and the others, motionless.
"Is this still possible?"
Fairy Zixia was stunned, looking at little Nannan with a strange look in her eyes. She could command the slaves in the forbidden area. Could it be that little Nannan was a slave in the forbidden area?
But if it was a restricted area, how could it end up in the mortal world?
"go!"
Lin Xiandao shouted, and several people acted quickly. Taking advantage of the gap when Huang Nu was motionless, they rode Ye Fan and rushed forward in one breath.
But just as they were about to pass by the barren slaves, the white-haired man took a step forward, and the world was about to collapse. This was the momentum of a peerless master! Every move he made was enough to shake the sky.
"It's over!"
Ye Fan closed his eyes in despair, as if he felt that he was about to collapse and his holy body was about to be turned into powder.
However, the next second he touched himself and showed a look of surprise. There was no bleeding and he was still alive.
"This uncle has no ill intentions." Little Nannan said softly, making everyone feel relieved.
The white-haired man is like a ruler who dominates the world, with an air of dominance that allows him to swallow mountains and rivers and dominate the world!
The Lord of the Divine Dynasty, who was from an unknown era, only saw a glimmer of light in his empty eyes. He looked at the little girl, then at Ye Fan, and did not move forward. Instead, an ancient jade appeared in his hand and he threw it over.
"Ding."
Everyone took the ancient jade, and Fairy Zixia's eyes showed a trace of surprise, and she whispered: "This is the Wu Shi Emperor Jade!"
She has one, given to her by Lin Xian.
"I have one too." Ye Fan took out the imperial jade he got from the auction house, and several people put it together and got four pieces.
Then Lin Xian took out two more and said with a smile, "I looted them from Duan De."
"As expected of Duan De." Ye Fan muttered. These two pieces of ancient jade must have been dug out from the tomb by Duan De. It was really difficult for him to find something that was hundreds of thousands of years old.
"It's almost there, it's almost there." Lin Xian whispered, his eyes lighting up. If the Black Emperor knew about this, he would be so happy that he would go crazy. Now, with the six Emperor Jades, he only needed three more and the Innate Holy Body and Dao Embryo to open the Beginningless Sutra.
When the white-haired man saw Ye Fan collected all the Emperor Jades, his eyes became empty again, and then he jumped into the abyss without looking back.
“He’s a delivery man.”
Lin Xian commented: "If they wore yellow or blue clothes, it would be more atmospheric."
Ye Fan was speechless. At this time, Saint Lin was still in the mood to make jokes.
Not long after the white-haired man jumped down, a clear voice suddenly sounded from the abyss. The woman's voice echoed in the ancient forbidden land, causing the nine gods in the sky to tremble.
She is the most stunning woman in ancient times, superior to the ancients and the present, and she does not live to become an immortal.
In his first life, he was the Heaven-Swallowing Emperor. In his later years, he sacrificed his old body into the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Pot, and no corpse was left.
The second life is like a pupa transforming into a butterfly, breaking out of the cocoon from the old body, shedding its molted form into a divine fetus, and severing the cause and effect of the past.
In the third life, he used the elixir of immortality to extend his life and gain another lifetime of longevity. The divine fetus regained its youth, but no new divine fetus was born.
As for the fourth life span, no one knows how she obtained it, but she should have reached the end of her life in this life and was unable to live long.
He has survived like this, life after life, without ever committing suicide. Now, as he is in his fifth life, he has replaced the Great Saint Body and entered the ancient forbidden area.
She has never left the world, just because of her obsession, which is also the most precious hope in her heart, just to say one thing.
"I will wait for your return in this mortal world!"
Little Nannan's whole body was glowing, as if she was about to ascend to heaven. An aura of supreme majesty burst out, climbing to the peak, waking up the people sleeping in the Forbidden Zone of Life, and taking a look at the Ancient Forbidden Zone.
After reading it, the Forbidden Zone Supreme fell asleep again, because the road to immortality had not yet been opened, and until the right time, they would not care even if the outside world collapsed.
Waking up now would only waste my strength.
They live in this world only to become immortals, and the supreme beings only move on the path to becoming immortals. Apart from this, no one can shake their determination to become immortals.
"Little girl!"
Ye Fan suddenly became anxious. Although they had only been together for a short time, he felt very pity for the little girl. How could he bear to see her get into trouble? He subconsciously stepped forward and wanted to grab the little girl.
However, little Nannan was still flying away, with flowers floating all over the sky and music playing, it was very sacred, but she was very scared and cried, "Big brother, is Nannan going to leave you?"
"I won't let you leave!" Ye Fan roared, and suddenly seemed to have triggered something, causing the void to stagnate.
The aura of the Dao Fruit combined with the power of the abyss, suspended in mid-air. Countless Dao patterns intertwined and formed a ghost face with traces of tears, seeming to be neither crying nor laughing.
"The symbol of the ruthless emperor..." Fairy Zixia murmured, her heart tightening, and she finally knew who the supreme being in the ancient forbidden area was.
One of the most amazing emperors of all time, once known as the Nanling Heavenly Emperor.
At this delicate moment, Lin Xian stepped forward holding a white paper boat in her hand and said with a sigh, "You didn't wait, but she did."
The elder brother of the Ruthless Emperor is an ancient holy body that is more than 200,000 years old.
Little Nannan’s older brother is the current Holy Body Ye Fan.
"Two different people, a similar flower. Why don't you become an immortal and then take a look at reincarnation." Lin Xian pointed at little Nannan and said, "Little Nannan has waited for her big brother."
Rumble, infinite fairy light bloomed from the bottom of the abyss, and a unique breath rose, brilliant and dazzling, and filled with rosy clouds.
At the same time, little Nannan closed her eyes, and her hands kept making seals in a mysterious and complicated way that was incomprehensible. A trace of black light emerged, forming a treasure vase that looked simple and natural.
The style of the vase is very simple, like the carrier of the Great Dao, it seems to be able to suppress all the heavens and worlds, mysterious and unpredictable.
"The Great Dao Aquarius!"
Ye Fan was shocked. He had discussed and sparred with Hua Yunfei before, so he naturally knew about this kind of thing. It was a Taoist weapon forged after a deep understanding of the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art. It was very similar to the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Pot.
The upper one is the Tao, and the lower one is the tool.
Lin Xian was also practicing the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art. He looked at this scene with complete concentration, copying the homework intently. The scene before his eyes was equivalent to a great emperor personally performing and preaching.
"Buzz!"
After a brilliant celestial music, the colorful tear mark flew up and was re-injected with essence and power, flowing with the breath of the emperor, and finally merged with the little girl's brow.
"Not for the purpose of becoming an immortal..." An ethereal and desolate sigh echoed, and the ancient forbidden land returned to its tranquility.
In the end, she did not take action, perhaps out of pity, or perhaps because she wanted to witness reincarnation, or perhaps because Lin Xian's white paper boat gave her a glimmer of hope.
Finally, little Nannan fell down again and sat on Lin Xian's shoulders.
